"Master Bruce," Alfred put his hand on Harry's shoulder with a solemn expression.

Bruce, who was shaking hands with Harry with a smile, stood up. He was familiar with Ah Fu's expression, which meant that the old housekeeper had something important to say.

"I'm afraid my return trip will have to be postponed for another day. From the conversation I had with Halle just now, I learned an amazing fact - Halle has no idea of ​​who she is or the story of her parents."

"—I think this is unfair to Halle and Lily. She is indeed a girl and needs my protection, but her gender is not a reason to deprive her of her right to know."

Bruce looked down at Harry with complicated eyes.

"She reminds me of the old Dick...they're the same age."

"And she reminds me of all of you kids."

"I'm not a child anymore, Ah Fu."

"In my eyes, you will always be children."

Harry watched the two adults coming and going from below, half understanding their conversation.

Alfred gently squeezed Harry's shoulder, "I think I need to meet Dumbledore in person for more details."

"I'll be with you, let me inform Dick and Tim first, and let them take over the night watch for another day." Bruce opened the car door, took Harry's little hand, let her sit in the back seat, and helped her fasten it. Seat belt, "Grandpa Fu is going to go through the formalities for you, can you and I go eat cake first?"

Harry nodded and hugged the teddy bear tightly. Uncle Bruce's car was so big that Harry felt more comfortable than his aunt's sofa.

"See you in an hour," Grandpa Afu waved to Harry through the car window.

Ha Li gave Grandpa A Fu a faint smile. She was actually very nervous, and she wanted to follow a strange uncle, but she wanted to be a brave girl.

In a street coffee shop not far from the orphanage, Halle was sitting by the window, hugging a teddy bear, munching on a piece of strawberry cake.

This is the best thing she has ever eaten in her life!

"Eat slowly, Harry, we'll make you another cake with candles when we get back to America," Uncle Bruce handed over a glass of milk, Harry took it, gulped it down, she almost choked just now.

Raising a little girl is really different from raising those four boys - looking at the well-behaved Harry, Bruce thought of Jason who pried his tires and Tim who hacked into his system, and he smiled.

This is Ah Fu's last relative - an unusual relative.

The Justice League has been established for many years, and its own observation tower in orbit around the earth is also running smoothly. Bruce has encountered all kinds of people with special functions in his vigilante career-they are either superheroes or super villains .

He thought that there was no existence on earth that could shock him, after all, Paradise Island and Atlantis were already known.As a result, a letter from England revealed to him a society that had been hidden for hundreds of years - the magical world.

He had thought that there were only independent magicians like Zatanna and Constantine, but he never expected that there would be a huge wizarding society right under his nose.

The little girl in front of me is a witch.

And Dumbledore's letter has been scanned and checked by him in various ways.In addition to analyzing the source of paper and wax, he and Afu also read it word by word-only two conclusions were drawn: one was that Dumbledore was an inscrutable person; Things are hidden from them.

They could have arrived in England two days earlier, saving Harley a few days in the orphanage.But Bruce stopped Ah Fu, who was eager to drive the Batplane right away. There were too many doubts in it, and he needed to be prepared.

So he asked Afu to reply to Dumbledore with the weird contact information of the wizards, (the owl delivering the letter was still in the Batcave, and it actually found Afu in the Batcave alone, which made Bruce alarm bells), Explain that when they go to England to pick up Harley, they may need to see him again alone.

Dumbledore was so helpful that he sent a small coin the next day and told them that if they needed to find him, they only had to touch the edge of the coin three times and there would be a convenient time and place for him—Bruce figured out the third The conclusion is that wizards are just like in fairy tale books, they are all talking.

Now that coin is in Ah Fu's pocket.

Harry had finished eating the cake at this time, carefully looking at Uncle Bruce who was lost in thought.

Bruce felt Harry's gaze keenly, and smiled at Harry.In front of this little girl, he can neither show the coldness of Batman nor the slickness of Baby Brucey.He felt like he was back in front of 8-year-old Dick - and Halle seemed to be as sensitive and bright as Dick.

He looked at his watch, and it was still early for the time agreed with Ah Fu. Looking around, he saw a children's clothing store, and immediately decided on the next place to kill time.

"Harry, your Grandpa Fu will stay for a while, shall we go buy you a little skirt?" Facing Harry's dewy green eyes, Bruce found it hard not to let go of his soft voice, and coaxed the little girl He spoke in a childish tone—if the criminals in Gotham saw themselves like this, they might lose their sense of fear of Batman completely.

Harley's eyes were obviously lit up, but she maintained her reserve—it really was Alfred's relative, with British manners in her bones, Bruce smiled.

He stood up, took Harry's little hand, and led her to the children's clothing store not far away.Fortunately, not many people in the UK know him, otherwise tomorrow's entertainment headline might be "Bruce Wayne's illegitimate daughter shows up".

Harry took Uncle Bruce's hand and looked around quietly, very nervous.This was the first time she walked into a children's clothing store, and she felt that her palms were sweating with excitement.

Uncle Bruce knelt down in front of her, "Harry, Uncle Bruce doesn't know what girls like, so can you pick it yourself? In this store, you can take whatever you like. Uncle Bruce and Afu Grandpa hopes that you can be an independent child, so start by buying yourself a small skirt, okay?"

Harry nodded vigorously.

She ran happily among the hangers—she had never seen so many beautiful clothes to choose from.

But she is not a child of extravagance, so she ended up picking only two skirts, two tops, and two pants—she had never owned so many clothes at the same time since she was a child.

"Is that enough?" Uncle Bruce asked.

Harley nodded, she could see that Uncle Bruce and Grandpa Alfred were both rich - but she was not a wayward girl, just enough clothes to wear.Besides, she had chosen her favorite.

Uncle Bruce asked Harry to change into a suit and leave, and threw her men's shirt and trousers with rolled-up trousers and a rope belt into the trash can in the store, took out the card and paid Harry, Lead her out of the children's clothing store.

Getting back into Uncle Bruce's car, Harry felt like a dream today.

When they arrived at the gate of the orphanage, Grandpa Afu was waiting for them.

"Harry bought a skirt? It's very beautiful." Grandpa Afu rubbed Harry's hair and walked to the front door of the car.

Bruce shook his head, "Sit in the back seat with Harley, I'm driving today."

The old butler hesitated for a moment, "Thank you, Master Bruce."

Harry is very happy, she can sit with Grandpa Afu.

Bruce looked at the unusually silent Alfred in the rearview mirror, "Call Dumbledore after returning to the hotel?"

Alfred shook his head and took out the coins he carried with him, "Just now, this is our usual style."

************************

Dumbledore set the meeting place at a remote and dilapidated bar, and Alfred frowned at having to bring Harry into such a place.

Presumably the old man with white beard sitting in the corner is Dumbledore, such a "creative" outfit... Bruce wondered how the wizards kept it secret for so many centuries.

Dumbledore also brought a stern-faced woman, tall and thin, who looked younger than Dumbledore-in fact, Bruce couldn't tell how old Dumbledore was, from biological characteristics, at least 100 years old, and The number is unbelievable. *

Seeing the three of Bruce enter the door, Dumbledore smiled and stood up to welcome them to their seats.

Harley didn't know it since she got off the car, so she thought they would leave for the United States immediately.

The old man with the white beard smiled at Harry, "This is Harry, right? I'm Albus. I want to talk to your grandfather and uncle about some grown-up matters." He pointed to the serious woman beside him, "This is Mi Leva, she can tell lots of funny stories about flying horses and talking cats."

"Is there?" Minerva glared at the cheerful Dumbledore, but she lost her temper by his calm eyes. It seemed that she needed to make up a "talking cat" story now.

"Do you want to hear a story, Halle?" Minerva quickly put on a gentle smile at Halle, and took her hand, "Let's go, I'll take you to drink tea."

Hali followed Grandma Minerva away in a daze, turning her head three times a step at a time, until Grandpa Afu nodded at her, and then sat in a corner where she could not hear the adults' speech with peace of mind.

"I'm delighted that Harry has a new family," Dumbledore said first.

"The results of the orphanage's physical examination showed that Halle had been malnourished, and until now she thought her parents died in a car accident," Alfred said calmly.

"I am indeed at fault for this. When I inspected the old house of the Dursleys yesterday, I observed Harry's living conditions all the time," Dumbledore said frankly. Litto. I only learned of your existence after the Dursleys passed away."

"You blame yourself too much," Alfred shook his head lightly, "I didn't know that Penny would be like this... But now that Harley has me, there is no need to be sad about things that have happened and cannot be changed. I also Will tell Halle everything she needs to know, it's an educational tradition for our whole family."

"You are a wise guardian, I can rest assured that Harry is by your side," Dumbledore remained calm.

"Speaking of reassurance, we have a few doubts, and I hope you can answer them, which is why we proposed this meeting," Afu took out the first letter Dumbledore sent him from his pocket.

"We would like to know why a dark lord, a wizard as shown in the letter, would personally kill Harley's parents when his power was in full swing. This is not in line with his purpose and interests. The interpretation of this is very ambiguous."

"I think you have something to hide from us, and this matter is very important."

The author has something to say:

*Dumbledore's age, he was 116 when he died, Harry was 16, so when Harry was 8, he should be 108 at this time.This article does not blacken Deng Xiao, and all the author's articles will not black Deng Xiao, he just needs to think too much.

*Thank you little angels for your comments!So touched!Your comments are a powerful driving force for codewords~~ I am really happy to share my brain holes with you. (*^▽^*)

The master himself doesn't want to write a fierce and cold character, he is not such a person in many manga animations (here is indeed a bit...but he is very gentle to the female Robin Kelly~)
